What are Dyne-centimeter and Foot-pound

Definition of Dyne-centimeter

A dyne-centimeter (dyn·cm) is a unit of torque representing the amount of force applied over a one-centimeter lever arm. One dyne-centimeter equals the torque resulting from a force of one dyne exerted perpendicular to a moment arm which is one centimeter long.

Definition of Foot-pound

A foot-pound (ft·lb) is a unit of work or energy in the Imperial and U.S. customary systems. It is the energy transferred upon applying a force of one pound-force through a displacement of one foot. It also represents the torque that results from a one-pound force applied at the end of a one-foot lever.
